does any1 succeeded using the polaris with parrot mk6100?
i have a problem: after a call the phone is disconnecting from the car kit. the car kit still thinks its connected, though. after a minute or so, the kit displays "disconnected" and then "connected", and then the phone is connected and i can make calls or play music again. but i have this 1 min+- of no connection after each call.
in case someone using the mk6100, please let me know your rom/radio version/and a2dp settings if possible.
thanks.
I can't make any suggestions, as I haven't purchased the MK6100 yet, but I have owned many A2DP devices, and have had to in the past with my old phone modify the registry to optimize the connection. I haven't noticed any such issues with the Polaris and my current A2DP headphones and stereo adapter.
Please post what results you do find as the MK6100 is at the top of my list for A2DP in the car.

I am looking for a quick and easy way to integrate my trinity with my car.
Currently I have have a generic car mount with charger. However, I find that TomTom and telephone calls over the speakers are too quiet.
I was thinking of installing a Parrot MK6000 in my car as a method to stream audio from my trinity to the car stereo whilst also acting as a car kit for hands free use while driving. Has anybody had any experience with wiring up this kit? is it easy for a moderate level electronics users (able to solder wires proficiently etc.) to wire up?
Alternatively does anybody know of other solutions to integrate the trinity with the car stereo?
Hello:
I installed this hands free in my car, and it works really fine as a hands free. The audio streaming works well too, but the sound is quite methalic. With tomtom, there is a delay in the sound, the first word it says, for example "...Turn on the left in...." you listen "...urn on the left in ..." and it hanpens allways when tomtom starts to talk.
My OS version is wm5 and I read that wm6 solves this problem.
I recently bought a LG LAC7700R (carstereo with bluetooth and cd/mp3/wma player, with a seperate mic you can place somewhere in your car) works good, up to 5 phones can connect, last six called contacts it will remember. no phonebook in carstereo. Carstereo mutes automaticly by incoming call. You can even use BT audiostream.
i have always BT on, on my phone, it will connect by itself with the carstereo.
works fine for me.
now i am looking for a nice phoneholder with only a charger.

I have a similar setup, with the Sony MEX-BT2500 instead.
However I did not manage to route the Tomtom or iGO sound over the BT A2DP stream.
As a charging holder I have the Brodit Cradle installed.

check this, maybe it will help:
goto bt settings in your phone and activate bluetooth stereo on. that's the thing for play mp3's and navigationvoices over BT. The handsfree mode is for phone voice. (leave that on!)
does sony support a2dp ? maybe that's the problem.

Actually I bought the Sony because it supports A2DP. And with MortPlayer it works flawless when listening music. With activated Bluetooth Stereo (Headphone Symbol in top bar) Tomtom still uses the internal speaker.
I am the happy owner of a HTC Topaz.
I ride a motorbike, and have recently bought a bluetooth crash helmet with built in speakers / mic which works a treat for answering and making calls and also for listening to TomTom navigation instructions from my HTC Topaz.
However, I have yet found a solution to allow me to listen to the built in radio via bluetooth. Because HTC requires the plug-in headset to act as an antena the radio doesnt work without it.
However when I plug in the headset, i get instant radio reception but then the sound is routed to the plug-in headset , rather thean the bluetooth speakers.
My logic tells me that there must be some way to use the plug in headset as ONLY an antena allowing the sound to be routed by deafault to the bluetooth headset. Surely this is software driven?
I am not a software Guru, but keen to learn and frustreted that there doesnt seem to be a yet obvious solution to this problem.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Yesterday, I installed a new car stereo and after a lot of frustration installing it, I was happily surprised the A2DP worked by default, just paired my touch pro with my stereo, start playing in wmp and it comes through my stereo system. However during the day I started looking for another player to use (during my breaks of course ) and installed pocket music player bundle ( I don't know if it has anything to do with my problem, just trying to include as much info as I can ). In the evening I enabled bluetooth of my phone again, I think I also had the headphone logo, but when trying to play using pocket music player and wmp, it always just used the speaker of the phone and didn't seem to send anything through A2DP.
Any idea how this can be? Is there a setting somewhere to change what audio is used (A2DP/Speaker/ whatever...)?
TIA!
OK, this seems to have been quite stupid.
Haven't been in my car since, but same behaviour with my logitech a2dp bluetooth headset.
Going into bluetooth settings, "right click" on logi_stereoV01 and "instellen als draadloos stereo" (set-up as wireless stereo) did the trick, probably the same for my CAR--BT,sorry for the stupid post.
Although it would be nice if the touch pro would automatically set the detected bluetooth device as wireless stereo every time, just as it seems to do for setting it headset when in range while turning on the bluetooth.
Sorry for the strange sentences... it was a long day
same problem
i just bought a bluetooth receiver for the car.
it fits in the lighter place and transmits via FM to the car radio.
My htc connected staight away (no code required to me) with the new "car Kit" found, but whatever i try i always have the sound from the htc speaker...
How can i solve this?
Thanx in advace.
Moderator: Please move to Eris general discussion. Thank you.
I have done two factory resets to attempt to solve this with no luck.
I have two BT headsets and my car hands free paired with my Eris. My headsets seem to drop the connection to the phone for no apparent reason. Also, before the upgrade, if I walked out of range of my phone, it would reconnect automatically when I got back in range. This no longer happens.
Also, when I get in my car with my headset connected to my phone, it disconnects the headset and connects the car's hands free system. I want the headset to stay connected in that circumstance. Before the upgrade my headset would stay connected.
Also, when listening to audio (music) on one of my BT headsets, I connect to the aux jack in my car, the BT audio is supposed to disconnect, but that doesn't happen. The audio continues to play through the headset and nothing comes from the aux on the car.
Anyone got any ideas on how to solve these issues?
Get a new phone.
Let me clarify - get a non-Sense phone.
HTC neutered BT in Eclair Sense because it was causing "compatibility issues" or some BS like that with Sense. We discovered this when owners of the Incredible started to complain about it.
It's not a problem, it's a feature!!
Seriously, though, if you root your phone and install an AOSP ROM (like CELB or KaosFroyo) your BT will work exactly right again. That's what worked for me anyway.
The feature comment was funny and right on. Thanks for your help.
One other the thought. The car BT uses the handsfree profile. The Plantronics Pro headset I use is capable of both the headset profile and the handsfree profile. However, when it pairs with the Eris you don't have a choice to use handsfree profile so it pairs under headset profile. I think handsfree profile has priority on the Eris. If I could figure that out, I probably would be better off.
Hi there,
I want to have my GNote to send all audio over bluetooth to my car (new Alfa Giulietta) which has the Fiat Blue&Me system.
The phone and car are connected and I can do phonecalls within the car, so this
setup works.
I've found a programm called BTMono which should work, but not with my setup.
If I switchon BTMono, the phone becomes quiet ut there i no sound from the car stereo.
Somebody else has done it with blue&me, and he gets a unknown phone call
in his car-screen when he redirects the audio (hesh.am/2012/04/stream-audio-from-an-android-phone-to-a-fiat-equipped-with-blue-me-via-bluetooth/)
I think the car must think that it's an actual phonecall, so the phone must send the proper commandos to the car.
Does anyone have any suggestion on this?
same here
It happens the same thing here. GM Cruze LTZ. Wouldn't it be that BT on it wouldn't be able to stream audio, just phone calls?
Normally it would
Normally it would, but with apps like BTMono it should be possible to stream audio to a bluetooth headset or carkit like the Parrot.
So I thought that blue&me could work for me also, but it doesn't
